Re: is this another game hint?

Also worth noting is the contents of the section being "edited" three times. This edit concerns the value of climb points at the FIRST Championship, which did not change. This 3-tiered challenge, with 3 edits indicating a lack of change to this challenge at the Championship, leads one to believe that a three tiered endgame will be returning in 2014, worth 10, 20, or 30 points. Perhaps it will even be a form of climbing again.

Also worth thinking about is the presentation of these "3"s in the form of errors. The 3 in the year of an earlier blog post was a typo. These three edits concern a section of the manual that doesn't exist yet in the 2014 manual (the entire Game section is empty until Kickoff). Perhaps this has some significance.

The number 3 alone means nothing (indeed, I've made the same argument you're all making in the last thread), but this potential clue does seem to give more context. Or we are all obsessing over coincidental glitches.
